<<displaying postbypost yearly archives

This isn’t exactly what you’re asking for, but it’s sure close… Have a look at this plugin: https://www.sonsofskadi.net/extended-live-archive/

Thanks, HandySolo;

It is very kind of you, I’ll check the plugin. I was writing a template; I presume for your answer that it is not possible to produce such a list with wordpress functions.

That would be an incorrect presumption. But I don’t believe you’d accomplish it with wp_get_archives.

Have you read up on The_Loop? You can do a lot with it and query_posts, but sometimes it’s ok to not reinvent another wheel and check out all the archive plugins that already exist. ??

Thanks again HandySolo;

The_Loop and query_posts are a good clue, I’m not sure I’ll be able of handling all that php but I’ll give a try ??

I just wanted to give a quick access to all my blog entries with wp_get_archives(‘type=postbypost’) . I’d like to establish a yearly division or cut because I have 40-50 for last year.

Ok;

I’ve found a workaround but it is not smart at all;

I can display all post of a particular year with query_posts(‘year=2006’) and then the loop, but I have to repeat the same code for each year I want to display;

query_posts(‘year=2005’) and then the loop

query_posts(‘year=2004’) and then the loop

…

for 2007 I’ll have to insert more code;

query_posts(‘year=2007’) and then the loop

is it very stupid? ??

Hey ganzua,

I was trying to do the same thing as you, too. Here’s what I’ve figured out. Instead of doing ‘year=1234’ do “year=$year”

Before that, add this:

<?php
	$year = (int)strip_tags(stripslashes($_GET['y']));
?>

To get the archives of a specific year, add ?y=2000 to the url of the page you created. The default, when no y value is defined, is to show posts from all years. You can make it so it shows the current year, etc.

Hope that helps.
